I'm having a bit of trouble finding the exact rules around taking a Coronavirus-Related Distribution (CRD) from an IRA. I would be interested in this as a tool to move pretax funds from an IRA into a regular brokerage account for early retirement planning purposes. I realize there are other solutions such as SEPP but I want to fully explore this.
In my case, I was given a 20% pay cut due to CV-19. I am salaried so my hours weren't cut. There were no furlough days. Just a pay cut, supposedly temporary.
Would I qualify to take a CRD of up to $100,000 without the 15% penalty? Any pay the tax over 3 years?
